Pakistans Army sure has some bad Guys embedded in it , and it appears they have been for awhile !
Good thing Barack Obama , John Kerry , and Howard Berman are looking out for American Interests (Like our troops ) By giving 7.5 billion us dollars to Pakistan to shore them up !
And I thought we didn't have any Money ?
ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Pakistani security agencies have detained a former army officer for possible links with two men arrested in Chicago on terrorism charges, an army spokesman said on Wednesday.
David Headley and Tahawwur Hussain Rana were arrested last month and accused of planning an attack on Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten, which ran cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad in 2005, sparking protests by Muslims in several countries.
Rana is a Pakistan-born Canadian citizen while Headley is an American citizen who had spent time in Pakistan, which is under U.S. pressure to crack down harder on militants along the border with Afghanistan to help it put down a Taliban insurgency there.
Pakistani military spokesman Major-General Athar Abbas said a former army major was detained in connection with the case.
"He's still in detention and is being questioned," he said, adding that no serving officer has been detained in the case.
According to U.S. court documents, the Chicago pair discussed their planned attack on the Danish newspaper with members of Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba group and al Qaeda-linked Pakistan-based militant Ilyas Kashmiri.
Lashkar, blamed for the 2008 Mumbai assault, also talked to them about possible attacks in India and suggested these should be given priority over the alleged plot in Denmark.
